Rapper DMX was arrested Saturday (May 13) after he refused to put on a seat belt and became abusive on a flight from New York to London.

"Heathrow Police were called at 12.05pm on Saturday to reports of a passenger causing a disturbance on an inbound aircraft," a Scotland Yard official said in a statement. "The plane landed at approximately 12.15pm and a 35-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of being verbally abusive to cabin crew."

The rapper, whose real name is Earl Simmons, received a caution and was released after his American Airlines flight landed at Heathrow Airport, according to police.

This is not DMX’s first brush with the law.  Late last year, he completed a 70-day sentence at New York's Rikers Island after pleading guilty to violating his parole following a 2004 incident in which he crashed his vehicle through an airport security gate.
